That is funny. Maybe it's because most of the plastic I've seen/held/thrown was proto and 1st run stuff...but even then, it seemed incredibly odd to see such a highly anticipated manufacturer produce such low quality plastic in terms of aesthetics.

Granted, I'm sure they all flew fine - which is what really matters - but in a consumer-driven society, looks matter. There's a reason why grocery stores throw out tons of perfectly good produce that has minor aesthetic flaws...people don't want to buy it.

Even more odd, because all of the Prodigy plastic I've seen has been proto or 1st run (mainly proto)... =/
